So I want you to think about this? Did it help? I want you to reflect on the last 12 months of your life. All that fear and anxiety you carried, all the worry you burdened, all the stress. All that worry, did it help? Did it help that while you were thinking and worrying about the unknown you didn’t smile enough… Life is life. It knocks you down because some times it didn’t meet your expectations. Some horrible things will happen to you in your life, for me it would be to lose Andrew. My life has a been an amazing journey, massive wins and overwhelming losses, but I would go through that all again if I knew it brought me back to Andrew, my friends and family. Life is shit! But only if we let it be. If you’re not happy at work, get another job. If you’re not happy in a relationship, then get out. If you’re not happy with your health, then do something about it. If you’re not happy with your weight, then drink more (works for me!). If you’re not happy somewhere in your life then change that. If you’re not happy with your life then reinvent yourself. That’s what I do! And that’s what I help people do. Life is meant to be lived, because this is the only life we have. Think about it, and I mean take 2mins to think about this… What advise would you give to a young kid on how to live a happier and more amazing live, when you’re old and on your death bed? My mum died when I was in my late 20’s. One of the last things she said to me and I will never forget was, “Don’t be afraid to live life. Love as many as people you can. Have fun. Find a love that will feel your soul. You will get hurt, you will fall, but you will not break. If you don’t do these things, you will realise too late what the true meaning of life is and that’s to live it. Don’t have regrets.” Hindsight is an amazing thing. We think about what would happen if I made this decision or that one. But the stupid thing is we don’t realise those decisions we did make brought us to where we are today, with the friends that we have and everything else you have in your life. If you feel you’ve meandered in life for a bit, then take control. 2015 is going to be amazing. Amazing, because it’s another year of your life. You need to take control, because nobody else will do that for you. It’s your life for f**k*sake, not theirs. They need to be accountable for their own happiness. Happy is such a weird word! But with it our lives change. Try this, write down 15 things that over the next 2 weeks will make you happy. Focus on that and not the negative crap happening in your life. You’ll be happier. I promise. 10 years ago I was travelling the world on an amazing 9 week holiday. I went to Singapore, Helsinki, Prague, Vienna, Budapest, Barcelona, Rome, Paris, London, New York, San Francisco, LA, Vegas, San Diego and Honolulu. It was an amazing experience to travel the world by myself and Betty White (who is the voice in my head). OMG you have to watch ‘Lost In Cleveland’. Betty White is my alter ego… Anyway, I stayed at some amazing and beautiful hotels in cities that just overwhelmed me at times. Totally surreal. I packed a Walkman and bought a CD at the airport in Brisbane before I left. One song that I played over and over again made me really think about life and where I would be in ten years. Today I was driving home from catching up with friends and the song came on and I realised… That was 10 years ago! Take 5 minutes and really listen to the words in this song. I look back now and am amazed how the past 10 years has flown. OMG what a journey… But what will be my next 10 years? Well I’m going into next year with momentum! I feel my life just got onto a highway with clear blue skies. I’m on a jet-fuelled bike and I’m ready to take on my next adventure. It’s exciting. I have my best friend in the world by my side, lovin me. With him there I can conquer the world again. I want to remember this moment with this song again, so that in 10 years from now I can reflect on my crazy journey, just like I have done tonight. Close your eyes and listen to the words. Think about your life and think about the possibilities, because they are endless. Don’t be afraid to live life. Love as many as people you can. Have fun. Find a love that will feel your soul. You will get hurt, you will fall, but you will not break. If you don’t do these things, you will realise too late what the true meaning of life is and that’s to live it. Don’t have regrets. https://youtube/watch?v=WOXVU3-6YZU Dx
